What's going on in Cambridge

The Carling Local

There is very little Itchy dislikes about festivals, but if we had to pick, our hate list would go chemical toilets, sitting on the floor and warm beer. Unfortunately there's not a lot any of us can do about the bogs, but we discovered an answer to the latter two at the Isle of Wight festival thanks to the Carling Local.

By day the delightful outdoor seating area neighbours a good old-fashioned bar serving, among other thirst-quenching delicacies, ice-cold pints of Carling in glasses. Real glasses. Glasses made of glass. The perfect stop-off before a long, hard day of gigs.

At night the venue becomes a different creature. The late-night destination for post-headliner fun, it heaves with all revellers who still have the energy to dance their asses off. They had us doing our dance interpretation of Mr. Brightside while standing on a picnic bench, and believe us when we say, there is nothing more special than that.

Visit the Carling Local at V Festival on the 21st and 22nd of August
